Today's Lyrics

Ahhh... an oldie but a goodie AND baddie... yeah... I say that because I hate feeling like this but it's also very empowering. Since this is the place to write down how I'm feeling and get it out (so I can actually function and deal with my surroundings) here it is:

I'll Never Fall In Love Again
Burt Bacharach / Hal David

What do you get when you fall in love?
A guy with a pin to burst your bubble
That's what you get for all your trouble.
I'll never fall in love again.
I'll never fall in love again.

What do you get when you kiss a guy?
You get enough germs to catch pneumonia.
After you do, he'll never phone you.
I'll never fall in love again.
I'll never fall in love again.

Don't tell me what is all about,
'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out,
Out of those chains, those chains that bind you
That is why I'm here to remind you

What do you get when you fall in love?
You get enough tears to fill an ocean
That's what you get for your devotion.
I'll never fall in love again.
I'll never fall in love again.

What do you get when you fall in love?
You only get lies and pain and sorrow.
So, for at least until tomorrow,
I'll never fall in love again!
I'll never fall in love again!


For a more recent version of this sentiment.... try this:

Never (Past Tense)

Tina Arena

(Verse 1)
I can't be with you again
Don't remind me of the good times that we had
I learned a lot from us since then
And I never want these feelings to ever come again

(Chorus)
You'll never hear me crying
You'll never see me trying
To love you once again
Your love is so past tense

(Verse 2)
Please don't tell me that you've changed
(and I) don't want to hear on how, you've lost your evil ways
(you see) the one who's changed this time is me
And I won't go back to feeling helpless and deceived

(Chorus)2X
You never hear me crying
You never see my trying
To love you once again
Your love is so past tense

(YOUR LOVE)
(YOUR LOVE)

(Bridge)
To think you had me fooled every now and then
You had me believing that I was the reason that you left
But I won't fall back in love with you again
I don't even want to be, - I don't want to be -
(backgrounds) your friend, no NO NO

(Chorus - )2X
You never hear me crying
You never see me trying
To love you once again
Your love is so past tense


Not falling for it anymore. It can start falling for me.


Peace,
J-E-N-N-A
